Does anyone have any idea what could be going on? Could this all just be a limitation of trying to use xkb with a bluetooth mouse?
I can't help you, but I am very interested in this problem. I have an old gaming mouse with additional buttons I'd like to bind.
Perhaps there is a way to do this without the keyboard? There must be a way to define a new button for a mouse. Or perhaps there's a way to do this without X.
Yes there is, but for that to happen the signal received must be a button signal. Your old gaming mouse should work just fine if you follow instructions in [1]. The N700 is a bit of an odd case because the signals its sending out are odd (see my original email). I doubt your gaming mouse does that.
